The NNIMIPA meeting will be held immediately following the “Researching Music Practices” symposium of the Grieg Research School in Interdisciplinary Music Studies (GRS), at which some NNIMIPA members will offer a panel presentation.

Network coordinator Cynthia Grund (with William Westney) will discuss how a NNIMIPA project on music and gesture that began in Oslo has expanded beyond the Nordic region with international research partners working at universities in both Texas and the UK. Kristoffer Jensen and Søren R. Frimodt-Møller will also present joint research projects entitled "Who Will Do the Solo? Studying Interaction and Decision Processes in a Small Jazz Group” and "MoCap and Audio Feature Analysis of Emotional Piano Performances”. Sigrún Lilja Einarsdóttir will present a paper entitled “J. S. Bach in everyday life: The ‘choral identity’ of an amateur ‘art music’ Bach choir and the concept of ‘choral capital’.” Oded Ben-Horin will discuss his European network project for music/science partnerships and its relevance to NNIMIPA’s mission. Alex Ruthmann will present some highlights from his recent research on new media musicianship and David Hebert will lead a group discussion of prospective research designs for a future collaborative study on music perception. There may also be a few other presentations and discussions.
